Goodbye and Good Riddance 2017: That'll put marzipan in your pie plate, Bingo!  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.

Go away, 2017. You have a lot to turn around, 2018. Bring it on.

Amy - the something else will be delayed due to life taking over, but there will be a something in 2018. I'm glad the goodies got to you!

Not javachik

Hmm, I have a question about last year's gifts -- meara and erika, did you in fact receive the city-specific magazines that I ordered for you? I'm in that account and realizing that I'm not sure if you ever got them. Thanks.

Hi Java, yes, I did!

not your mom's socks.

Holy moly my secret santa knew the perfect day to drop a box on me (it has been a really tough day). I cannot wait to open it. More soon.

Thank you so much Secret santa (I have a guess but I am not certain so if you want to out yourself...) this was the perfect combination of whimsy and joy and beauty -- the framed puzzle with all our names in it is my heart favorite, but I admit to already stopping HPF from stealing the necklace and the socks with a benedict cumberbatch level "NOPE." There are buttons and cookies and I adore everything. Thank you so much.

Because books.

I thought I put my name on the back of the card, but I might have forgotten in my rush to actually mail the package! I'm so glad you like it all. I had fun making the word search.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Amazon says my first Santee package was delivered, I hope that's true. Still putting together the second.

Our wings are not tired.

My part two is very slightly delayed by the lack of automobile since mine is in the shop and I have a stop to make. Not sure what DH's schedule is for the lone vehicle tomorrow.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Just went to Amazon and reported that Santee's main gift still hasn't been delivered. Further details as they become available. If not for this one item, the package would have been in Santee's hands before the New Year. Irksome.
